Hi everybody I use declarativeNetRequest to change user agent. If my user agent should change on the bing site and it is also selected as a standard search engine, then when a new tab is opened, the text "chrome://new-tab-page-third-party/" appears in the search bar. Has anyone encountered this problem?

"chrome://new-tab-page-third-party" is a relatively recent addition to Chromium; it was introduced around a year ago. To my knowledge, Chromium uses this page when the end user changes their default search engine to one that does not have a new tab page defined.

The prepopulated search engine info for Bing does have a new tab page defined, so it sounds like something odd is going on. I'd encourage you to use crbug.com/new to file a bug report.
